commercial

It is not everyday that I say to Punk, "Wash off your mascara before you go to bed." But today was one of those days.

He and Kooka spent four hours shooting a commercial for a program on an NBC affiliate. In the spot, they play two kids who's mom has forgotten them at soccer practice. When she finally does show up, she is so excited to see her favorite TV show that she drives right past them.

Both kids had a great time. Kooka loved Ben the make-up guy, who not only made her look fabulous, but told us stories of dancing at Larkin,and played soccer with us. The guy has some mad skills. Kooka was kicking like a pro after 10 minutes with him. Punk refused to let me take his picture while he was putting on makeup, but he also loved Ben. The kid even shared his granola bites with him - so they must have had a connection.
He spent most of his time with Ryan - the tech guy. They sat next to the giant bowl of M&M's and talked shop. Punk told him all about the movies he wants to make and Ryan shared his first film with us (click here - it cracks me up).

The spot is set to air in mid-June. If we get a copy - we'll put it up. In the mean time - here are some snapshots to tide you over.
